Hello,

this issue was discussed on cygwin's ML some time ago.  For shared libgcc-DLL use it might happen that the DLL is released too early, so we need to perform an explicit load of it for increasing the load-count.  By this we make sure that the DLL is still loaded on destruction.

I will apply this patch soon, if there are no objections.  Corinna, please retest that this patch fixes the reported issue.

Regards,
Kai

	* config/i386/cygming-crtbegin.c (__gcc_register_frame):
	Increment load-count on use of LIBGCC_SONAME DLL.
	(hmod_libgcc): New static variable to hold handle of
	LIBGCC_SONAME DLL.
	(__gcc_deregister_frame): Decrement load-count of
	LIBGCC_SONAME DLL.

I'm not set up for testing this, but the patch looks basically the same
as the original, which has been reported to fix the problem:

Thanks,
